Don't think we're supposed to put links on here ?Ermm   Try exo2.co.uk   Rechargeable power units for heated gloves, kidney belts, insoles, so no hard wiring to the bike.

Anyone interested in heated grips, take a look at M & P's website. In their winter sale there are various makes of heated grips from £29.99.

Just a note on heated grips...some bike ignition systems ie HISS are not suited to being spliced fitted and need to be fitted into the aux system via its own fuse line out, check dealer first.
Heated grips can be fitted direct to the battery but must have an in line fuse in case of a malfunction and unless you fit a live relay/or pick up for auto on/off through the engine run/stop you will have to remember to turn them off.
 The voltage saver on Oxford products heated grips can  flatten   batteries and has done on 4 different model bikes that i am aware of, so if you start getting this problem after you have fitted them that is the first place to look.
